I read them both, but the core of the argument was that he will develop like Malone, Dirk and the Gasols, otherwise why use them as examples? If that is what you think he will turn into you have been drinking the koolaid. No one is saying he CAN'T develop. I am saying that he likely WON'T turn into one of those guys. If that is what you are banking on, well yikes. And if all you are looking for is a backup then why not trade the pick and go for a backup that is already past their breaking-in period and can help NOW, and not in 3-5 years?
 
We really need a C, and Frank sees himself in that video as a stretch 4. I see where Turner might entice the Jazz FO as a back up to Gobert. We'd have shot blocking, and rim protection at all times. The question is how do Turner and Booker fit together?

Using them as examples as they were able to be fine without much athletic ability never did I say he was going to be as good or play like him though they do have similar skill sets to degrees

Trading the pick is a cop out. One or two of these guys will be very good, at least starter quality. The Jazz spend a lot of money scouting and in player development, to trade the pick is essentially throwing all that work away.

I could see this. He's overdoing the whole---I get angry by imagining someone's hitting my mom---thing in his interviews.

Yeah, its a bit silly to try and apply it to basketball. It worked for Adam Sandler though.

I'm really not a fan of what I've seen of Turner. He seems to do well only in those areas in which he has natural gifts; and seems to struggle to make an impact in many subtle aspects of the game. He also looks like injury.
